stuff.co.nz MARCH 24, 2016, CHRISTCHURCH MAIL 5 FR FRESH M Miss Lola Turquoise’s interest in pin-up and vintage culture spawned from a lifelong love of cars. Pin-up princess plans big day out JOEL INESON From the roaring ‘20s to the swinging ‘60s, vintage culture is continuing to take over, and for one Cantabrian its appeal is much more than what a trip down memory lane. Natasha Pearson has been dress- ing up as alter-ego Lola Turquoise for about four years and said the hair, make-up and flowing dresses gave her the confidence she previously lacked. ‘‘The amount of people that, even if you’re just wearing a dress, will come up and say you look good. ‘‘It’s definitely an ego boost.’’ She said her interest in pin-up and vintage culture came from a lifetime interest in cars, and when she purchased her pink 1937 Chevrolet about seven years ago the pin-up scene soon followed. After some time dressing up at shows, a best-dressed competition at the Whangamata Beach Hop gave her the confidence to pursue her interest further and eventually enter a pin-up boot camp earlier this year, she said. ‘‘I’m not really a big, brave, outgoing person normally, but I was like ‘nah, you only live once, I may as well give it a go and see what happens’,’’ she said. The Kaiapoi native will fly to Auckland on the weekend of April 9 to be at the fifth annual Very Vintage Day Out (VVDO). Lola Turquoise will be the only South Island competitor in the Miss Pinup 2016 pageant. She said she would have pre- ferred to drive, but the Chev was booked to be at a wedding that weekend. VVDO spokeswoman Evelyn Ebrey said vintage culture was something that had ‘‘always been there,’’ but popular American sitcom Mad Men was the real turning point and gave it a mainstream appeal. ‘‘The fashion, in particular, influenced the global fashion industry and there has been a huge increase in vintage-inspired dressing since then.’’ ❚ Miss Lola Turquoise’s bio, photos and video, as well as voting for the Miss Pinup 2016 competition can be found at www.veryvintage.co.nz/miss-pinup-2016/ 6-miss-lola-turquoise PHOTO: SUPPLIED CHOPS $ 11 LEGS HOGGET SH 11.95.9 KG KG HOGGET FAMILY LEG 35 HOGGET FA $35.00.0 EACH EACH DON FORGE THEBIRDS RD SAUSAGEO THE W BRATWURST BR WURS E OF THEWEEK COME IN AND SEE THE CHANGES HOGGET H MEATS BARRINGTON D S E T E CH S BA SHOULDER CHOPS ER HOGGET CHOPS CHOPS 13 LA $13.95.9 LARGE KG KG HOGGET HOGGET SH ROLLED HOGGET LOINLO NGTON SHOULDERS BON BONED AND ROLLE $ .95.9 EACH EACH ITS GETTING COLD BIRD FEEDERS DON’TFORGET TH 2 CO EA EA COMEAND GE SOME GET SOME ERS ‘Real Bacon’ $9.95.9 KG KG Ph 354 5616 Barringtonrring www.freshmeats.co.nzmeat .nz www.melrosemotorsports.co.nz 50cc Melrose rs march madness sale now only $1395+0rc save $600 silver fox was $1995 Dry Cured Grandad’s Bacon 7 DAYS!AYS OPEN OPEN TRADITIONAL BUTCBUTCHER!
